birthdays and beaches..



The reading in Atlanta went fabulously (I must thank one Jenny Sadre Orafai and the New South folks for inviting me down to GSU to read..) We are now settled in Myrtle Beach, a block from the ocean. For my birthday tomorrow, I plan to do some shopping along the strip for cheap trinkets and tacky souvenirs, some lounging about ocean-side (years since I'd been in the Atlantic, I'd forgotten how much the sand slips out from under you as the tide comes in closer), and dinner somewhere with shrimp the size of my fist. And, of course, ice-cream cake, which may be a little difficult to manage in a tiny hotel fridge ...
